It'll be the plastic cover plate at the top rubbing....

Not you can do apart from maybe spray some DW40 down there or wait for it to wear down :thumbsup

Thanks for that, got a pm from KIRK, he thinks it might be gear linkage needing a bit of lub, getting it serviced soon so will leave it upto the mech to sort.
